Johnny Manziel is BACK ... in the club scene not the NFL ... hitting up two clubs Wednesday night and TMZ Sports has the footage.

The unemployed NFL quarterback started his night off at the Lakers game at Staples Center -- but after the game was over, he rolled into The Nice Guy ... which was packed with huge stars like Kendall Jenner, Brody Jenner, Nick Jonas, Selena Gomez and more.

After a while, Manziel decided it was time to move and took the party over to Warwick nightclub ... where he stayed until 2 AM.

For what it's worth, Manziel didn't appear to be wasted -- he looked sober and was even driving a car at one point.

"It's a tough time right now in Lakerland," so says Lakers prodigy Jordan Clarkson who called D'Angelo Russell his "brother" -- but stopped short of saying he would ever trust the guy again.

Clarkson -- who scored 26 points in the Lakers OT win over the Heat -- was leaving The Nice Guy in West Hollywood when we asked about the drama between Russell and Nick Young.

"Both of them dudes my brothers," Clarkson said.

Kyrie Irving finally broke his silence on his ex-GF Kehlani ... saying he has "nothing but love and compassion" for her -- but blames HER ex-BF for starting all of the social media drama.

As we previously reported, Kehlani was placed on a psychiatric hold earlier this week -- claiming she was suicidal after social media shamed her for allegedly cheating on Irving with her ex-BF ... a guy named "PartyNextDoor."

But in a Twitter statement Wednesday night, Irving pointed the finger at PND -- claiming it was his fault for posting a pic of him and Kehlani in bed before the world knew she had broken up with Kyrie.

"I do not justify the picture or what dude did to try and spark all of this non sense that could have been avoided," Irving wrote.

"Me and Kehlani were not dating when the picture came out."

Irving added, "Nothing but love and compassion over this way for her and her family. My only focus the Game I love to play every night."

Irving has since removed his tweets.

Lamar Odom took up Kobe Bryant on his offer Wednesday night and was his special V.I.P. guest at the Lakers game -- his first time back at Staples Center since his overdose back in October.

Snoop Dogg is PUMPED to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame ... so pumped he broke into a Hulk Hogan impression at the mere mention of the honor and we gotta say ... it's kinda dope.

"Making a Murderer" star, and controversial convict, Brendan Dassey's lost all hope in his new prison -- he will not get to see his favorite show, WrestleMania ... TMZ has learned.

Dassey transferred to Columbia Criminal Institution in Wisconsin in January, and prison officials tell us there's a strict rule against violence, foul language and nudity for TV viewing. That means the WWE's main event is off the table, so avid wrestling fan Dassey is screwed.

If you watched 'Murderer,' you'll recall Dassey's main concern after getting arrested for homicide in March 2006 ... was that he'd miss WrestleMania 22 the next month.

Nope.

For the 3rd straight time, the Lakers are giving away a Kobe Bryant bobblehead that looks absolutely nothing like the Mamba.

The previous two bobbleheads looked more like Danny Glover and Will Smith than Kobe ... but this last one is so off, we can't even come up with lookalike.

Thoughts?

This is awesome.

The blonde badass who lost her leg in the '13 Boston Marathon attacks is just weeks from running in the 2016 race ... and says she's ready to show the world those cowards couldn't break her spirit.

D'Angelo Russell has apologized to Nick Young in a face-to-face meeting earlier Wednesday -- and Nick accepted ... but things are still icy between the two.

As previously reported, Lakers honchos organized a sit-down between the players to hash things out over a video that Russell secretly shot of Young apparently admitting to cheating on his fiancee Iggy Azalea.

Sources close to Young tell us he accepted Russell's apology and the beef is squashed for now ... but as our source put it, "Everything is cool but it ain't gonna be the same."

Iggy Azalea found solace from the Nick Young drama on a horse ... of course, of course.

The rap star -- who's a big equestrian enthusiast -- took out her frustrations Wednesday by saddling up at a private riding trail in Calabasas ... alone.

Miami Heat star Joe Johnson says he WON'T be distracted by the Lakers off-the-court drama when they face off at Staples Center Wednesday night ... but lets us know it would NEVER happen with the Heat.

The 7-time All Star was walking in Bev Hills before tonight's game when we asked him for his take on the D'Angelo Russell, Nick Young situation.

Lakers head coach Byron Scott says he's disappointed D'Angelo Russell's secret video of Nick Young went public ... telling the media he was hoping to keep the matter in-house.

Scott spoke with reporters at a Lakers shootaround moments ago -- Russell was there, Young was not.

Scott was short in his comment about the situation -- but called the matter an "internal issue" ... adding, "We'll deal with it."

Metta World Peace also spoke to the media ... saying the Lakers "love each other" and are "in good spirits."

Sure, things got heated ... but the cop who traded insults with Jon Jones during his drag racing stop last week is NOT under review for his behavior ... the Albuquerque PD tells TMZ Sports.

The UFC fighter made it clear from the beginning of the stop that he was unhappy with the way he was being treated by Officer Brown on Thursday night ... calling him a "f*cking liar" and a "pig."

When Jones told Officer Brown he was "despicable" ... Brown fired back, "I feel the same way about you sir."

Now, the APD is making it clear they didn't feel Brown did anything overtly wrong.

"Officer Brown is not under any type of review," Public Information Officer Tanner Tixier tells us.

"[His] interaction with Mr. Jones didn’t violate any standard operating procedures so further inquiry isn’t warranted."

Looks like Orlando Scandrick and Draya Michele are looking for some fresh digs for their most recent fresh start ... eyeing a brand new Sherman Oaks mansion before the birth of their son.

Sources close to the Dallas Cowboys star and his fiancee tell TMZ Sports the two are looking at a "secluded Cape Cod compound" in the celebrity laden Sherman Oaks/Encino area.

Orlando had listed his Woodland Hills estate -- with hot shot realtor Lee Mintz -- at $2.1 million late last year ... but recently reduced the price around $250k ... we're guessing to expedite the whole "moving out of the place she tossed my shoes in the pool" thing.

Check out some pics of the old home below ...

MLB veteran Delmon Young says he's "moving on with his life" after a judge dropped the charge against him for allegedly choking a hotel valet earlier this year ... TMZ Sports has learned.

The former Orioles outfielder was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery back in February after a valet at the Viceroy Miami says Young went crazy on him at the valet stand.

Young's accuser did not show up to a court hearing Wednesday -- so the judge dismissed the case.

We spoke with Young's attorney David Oscar Markus -- who previously repped Dwight Howard -- and he says, "The prosecution's case whiffed and justice was served."

John Kasich is throwing SHADE at Aaron Rodgers ... and it all went down live Tuesday night at a town hall event right in the middle of Packers country.

Long story short ... Kasich was asked who he'd pick as his running mate if he actually got the nod -- and that's when he took the dig at the Green Bay Packers quarterback.

Clearly, Kasich was trying to show the people of Wisconsin that he keeps up with the Packers -- but dissing Rodgers in CheeseheadLand?
